Good afternoon PSAR, or what's left of it.
Glad to see a few are still dropping by. Good to see the dreaded stretch mark issue is being addressed.
I had to find my password book from years ago to log back in. First time that's happened to me on this site.
We've been busy over this way, even with all the rain the projects keep going. Had several hundred feet of trench dug a week ago and got the pipe and wire in it. Been so wet we've not been able to do the backfill. Hard to do a decent job when you're pushing mud. Makes a heck of a mess where the tires run and since this is a new garden area I don't want a bunch of hard clods on the surface.
Getting the new garden shed about ready to go. Have the big cement slabs that will be set for the floor and four of the support post in place. Got a bunch of some kind of double wall plastic stuff for the south facing "glass" wall for the greenhouse area.
Turns out the "small" chicken house SWMBO was talking about has grown into a 20' X 16' chicken palace. Good grief! All we really need is an 8' X 10' space with a dirt floor. This thing gets cement floor, insulation, running water, lights and central heat with a swamp cooler for the hot weather. Can you say $50.00 a dozen eggs? Seems the plan is to let the grandsons raise laying hens to sell and "make some money". It'd be cheaper to pay them to watch TV.
Probably add a gravel floor area to this building to store garden tractors, quads and the like in as well. Might as well once we're building.
Don't know about you guys but it's so wet down here I've not been able to till the garden area yet, way it's going we may have some small carrots by Labor Day.
Quads have been pretty much staying home, too cold and wet to use them much.
Mike
